The Jackson standard. [volume] (Jackson C.H., Ohio) 1847-1888, 1887-03-03

but were not prepared to say it was right
It was a whole sermon. We are all chill
dren, after all. 80. The two young men
Humphries and Williams, who had the
fight near the Valley House. few nights
ago, plead guilty before the Mayor, anG
were fined. Homer Jones gave the
people pointer here as to how to tel
whether whisky was sold in any room
eff you see men go into a room empty
and come out full, you may be sure there
is something sold in there" But then
comes in the difficulty that so many men
are full all the time The Sallie Price
Company closed up doubtful season-as
to financial success-to-night This Com
pany has some good actors, but we sug-
gest that it takes little too much expert
ence to play some of their plays.
SUNDAY.-This day takes all the con-
ceit out of the grounding, a regular biz
Zard blowing, with occasional showers of
snow. Many people, however, turned out
to the churches and Sabbath Schools. -.
At Jones Hall this afternoon, there was
a good-siZed audience at the temperance
meeting. John T. Moore Esq. addressed
the meeting, and was in a jolly mood,
keeping the people laughing during near
ly all of his talk. This seemed to be the
only kind of speaking that would have
held the crowd, for it was insufferably
cold in the room. Mr.. MOore'S effort was
fully equal to Maj Camps best, in the
range of happy hits, and sharp passes.
His argument was unanswerable. After
hT- H.
was on the list as a speaker, stepped for
ward and said that he would endorse Mr..
Moores speech, and not make any of his
own. The crowd dispersed, well pleased
even so cold as it was.
MoNDAY.-Another change, this being
beautiful spring day. -. Examination
week in the Schools, and the children
only have to put in half time. -. Nat.
Hoover was at M. Z. meeting again to-
night. Stephen Wey and his brother
have rented the property recently vacated
by Alex. Livingston, on Portsmouth
street. -. Stephen Vaughn is in town.
-. Said several good brothers in
Church tonight: "We have never had
any desire to go to theaters, dances, and |
other places of worldly amusement-we'd |
rather be at Church-we can, and always |
could enjoy ourselves better at Church,
even in our younger days" and other
words of similar import. We chanced to
look toward one side of the room, and
there was group of bright little fellows
who were certainly enjoying the meeting
by poking bits of paper down the regis
ter and watch the heat throwing them
up. There was solid enjoyment for you.
A whole brigade of Uncle Tom bulldogs
and donkeys could not have made the
little fellows more happy. It's of no use
brethren, to try to make solemn old men
out of lively children. Time will do
hat soon enough, we cannot do it by
occurring them. We can train the chill
lren, and point the way-but we do not
believe it was intended that a merry,
'omping child should torture itself into
akir or a recluse.
TUEsDAY.-Johathan Hill, (colored,) an
insane person who was sent to the Asy-
um from this place on the 14th of Febru-
Try, died this morning in the Asylum, as
by a telegram to Judge Miller.
This old man was at one time quite well I
ixed in the world, but lost his property
through assisting others in the way of
debts. This unsettled the mans I
mind. .Kimberlings are moving their
zig store to-day. ,,
